Eenmaal de afdaling vanuit Lanark achter de rug is, ga je meteen na de brug over de Clyde linksaf een rustig weggetje in en dit loopt ruim 1 kilometer behoorlijk bergop. Middenstuk is veruit het zwaarst. Je kan daarna nog wat extra hoogtemeters pakken door nog lange stukken vals plat mee te nemen in je route.
